Those old school Bombers worked great this spring.  I had a friend give me a whole bunch of them so I have enough til I die lol.

they did. and you could tell who was using them and who was using SP's by the sound each one makes on the cast.  16a bombers have worked consistently for a long long time for stripers up and down the coast.

Split outings today.

 

AM: beginning of outgoing, nice surf that warmed up but weedy. 1 hook up and dropped him right at the lip. 2nd spot worse with the weed.

 

PM: afternoon evening bite, top of the outgoing, water still warm and cleaner, light easterly, fish active for me finally. Landed 8 with a bunch of pickups and misses. 24”-29”.

 

Back at it tomorrow.

Will concur on the evening bite.  Put in two hours yesterday evening and landed 5 and lost a few others along with additional hits.  Went back to the same area this morning and could only land 2 dropping another 3.  Everything was 27 inches or less.  Warmer water and an abundance of bugs washing around in the surf line.  This week has produced some of the nicest bass water day after day with the rolling surf and plenty of rips.  Forecast is calling for some SE wind later today so just hoping that doesn't toss a wrench into things.

A buddy of mine tied me up some sand flea jigs last year…. Haven’t had any luck with them yet. Wondering if anyone has any advice on how to properly use them… doesn’t seem natural to cast them out and retrieve them back to the beach…. Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated…
